Yoseikan Budo

Yoseikan Budo is a comprehensive martial art founded by
Master Minoru Mochizuki. Master Mochizuki is one of the last living direct students of
Judo founder Jigoro Kano, a major student of Aikido founder Morihei Ueshiba and also
studied under Gichin Funakoshi, founder of Shotokan Karate. Believing that the martial
arts have become distorted in the 20th century by specialization into separate disciplines
and transformation into sports, Master Mochizuki has assembled the major techniques of the
Japanese martial tradition into a single coherent structure.
